Coucal. Greater - Prince of Darkness Bird

I'm refering to this picture of the Greater Coucal

bringing some sort of fantasies..watching too much comics maybe.. but the long tail of the coucal being spread does look like a cape.

This is after rain, the coucal spreading its feathers to dry out.

There are quite a few times I found this species perching on top of bushes. A great photo oppurtinity..
